一首委婉凄美的爱情歌曲 yuntai2015-02-24 03:37:42
《十面埋伏》(House of Flying Daggers) 是由张艺谋执导的他的第二部武侠片，2004年拍摄完成并于中港及美国发行。美国版的片中主题歌《恋人》(Lovers)由梅林茂(Shigeru Umebayash)作曲，美国著名轻歌剧抒情女高音凯瑟琳迪安娜巴特尔(Kathleen Deanna Battle)演唱，是一首委婉凄美的爱情歌曲。
几年前，美国零零后古典跨界小歌手Jackie Evancho也翻唱了这首歌，并收入她发行的第二张Full length专辑《Dream with Me》(“与我同梦“)。该专辑由16项格莱美奖获得者David Foster制作，曾获得Billboard 200 Chart 排行榜第二，Billboard’s US Classical Chart排行榜第一。以下是Jackie Evancho 演唱这首歌的视频，选自她为推介该专辑而举办的一次演出活动。
之所以想起推荐这首歌，缘于近日听一位同事向我提起，十多年前她曾应聘远赴乌克兰，在该片的剧组工作过一段时间，与张艺谋，章子怡，刘德华，金城武朝夕相处，刘德华还曾夸她的中文讲得很好。正巧在网上看到Jackie Evancho演唱该曲的视频，听了觉得很好，又请我这位同事听了，她也觉得非常好听，特此推荐给大家。相信大家也会喜欢的。
另外，碰巧第一次读我的帖子朋友，敬请顺便看我的另一篇介绍Jackie Evancho的博文：

下面是《恋人》英文版的歌词，顺便也贴在这里便于对照欣赏：
There was a field in my old town
Where we always played hand in hand
The wind was gently touching the grass
We were so young, so fearless.
Then I dreamt o'er and over,
Of you holding me tight under the stars
I made a promise to my dear lord,
I will love you forever
Time has passed
So much has changed
But the field remains in my heart
Oh, where are you?
I need to tell you I still love you
So I reach out for you,
You fly around me like a butterfly.
Your voice still echoes in my heart,
You are my true love.
There was a field in my old town,
Where in spring all flowers blossomed wide.
We were chasing butterflies
Hand in hand till close of day.
Your voice still echoes in my heart
